Even the most dedicated of music fans can sometimes have blind spots in their knowledge. So here's a question for you all: which of Henry VIII's six wives do you imagine might be prog legend Rick Wakeman's favourite?
We're fully aware that this is unlikely to have been a question that's ever kept you awake at night, but now that we've raised the matter, you want to know, right? Of course you do.
Respect and big thanks here are due to Vulture writer Jordan Hoffman who broached the subject with the 75-year-old English musician during a recent interview, published on the website yesterday. The relevance, obviously, being that Wakeman's second album, released in January 1973, was a concept album based around - you've guessed it - The Six Wives of Henry VIII.
